Fanatec Forza Motorsport Racing Wheel and Pedals Bundle

One of the products we recommend checking out is the Fanatec Forza Motorsport Racing Wheel and Pedals Bundle. This officially licensed set combines the ClubSport Steering Wheel Universal Hub with the ClubSport Forza Motorsport Wheel Rim GT. It is built with brushed and anodized aluminum while being covered with smooth leather.

For rumble, the base uses a brushless servo motor to provide smooth rumble throughout the circumference of the 33cm wheel. It also uses DirectSensor technology for precision as well as a belt drive, which has multiple v-ribs and ball bearings, to make steering feel as realistic as possible. Last but not least, the steering wheel features many action buttons as well as multiple paddle shifters.

The Forza Motorsport Racing Wheel Bundle also comes with a pedal set that is built complete with metal. The floor unit uses a 90kg load cell, which adds realism when pushing down on the brake pedal. Both the gas and brake pedals feature vibration motors that will indicate whether or not you are losing your grip on the track or braking too hard. Also featured are D-shape pedal plates and pedal extensions, both of which will let you adjust the angle of the plates and arms. Finally, the pedals use magnetic hall sensors for precision.

If you don’t mind the high price, then the Fanatec Forza Motorsport Racing Wheel and Pedals Bundle is the best available Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox One X racing wheel option for the 2017 holiday season. If you are interested, you can purchase the accessory set with this link.
